Cheese bread is bread made with cheese worked into the dough or batter itself, rather than used only as a topping or filling, giving the loaf a savory flavor and a moist, sometimes stretchy crumb. Regional versions include Brazil's pão de queijo and Colombia's pandebono, both made with cheese and tapioca or cassava starch rather than wheat flour, and Italy's focaccia di Recco, a thin cheese-filled flatbread from Liguria. Cheese bread can be shaped into loaves, rolls, or flatbreads, and is served as a snack, alongside soups and salads, or as a base for sandwiches.
